About this property

Authentic log cabin perfect for 2❣️Fantastic Lake Superior Views & lake access.

Looking for that Ideal, Quiet ..Get-away for two?❤️. The St. Croix is an authentic log cabin nestled on the South Shore of Lake Superior. It is located just 3 miles west of the quaint town of Port Wing,Wi. which is the halfway point between Superior and Bayfield Wisconsin. The views to the big lake are spectacular, as well as a private access to the beach. There is access to the beach- in front of your viewing bench.The cabin is heated by a beautiful gas stove fireplace along with electric wall heat if needed. We provide full fiber internet and a flat screen TV with Dish. Enjoy the log furnishings, along with the loft stairway - leading to a queen log bed in the loft giving you views of the big lake. ( Be sure to use handrails & keep your backside towards the lake when going up and down the stairs.)Once outside you have access to a private fire pit with wood provided. You have a Webber grill available for your use. Enjoy viewing the beautiful sunsets from the log swing (shared by both cabins) or your own private viewing park bench- both located on the bluff. You can walk the 180 feet of sandy beach while looking for agates or skipping rocks, or grab a towel & bring a good book and chill. There are two extra chairs by the fire pit- to bring down to the beach as needed.There’s a basket of brochures in the cabin with suggestions of the various restaurants and tourist attractions in the area. Be sure to check out all the unique waterfalls in the area, along with the numerous hiking trails, biking and kayaking opportunities…
The quaint town of Port Wing offers a great little store called: Johnsons which offers all the basic groceries, along with fresh & smoked fish, and gas. The town has two bar/ restaurants and a great marina and two separate beaches. They even have a coffee shop! The next towns going SE towards Bayfield are Herbster & Cornucopia both have beaches, restaurants and shops to explore. Bayfield is a beautiful town filled with lots to see & do. A must do is to take the ferry and explore Madeline Island… of course.. you may just want to stay at the St. Croix and embrace the sounds & pace of the Big Lake! Watch for the eagles that visit daily along with looking for the big ore boats that seek passage into Duluth. We hope you’ll enjoy this one of a kind place.

We had a fabulous tine at the cozy little cabin and exploring the area. The hosts were very nice and communication was great. They were staying at the other cabin but we hardly ever saw them as they were giving us privacy. Beautiful area! Would stay again, thank you!

Great rental property.

Overall the place was very clean. The view of the lake was spectacular. We didn’t spend much time at the rental as we had a family weekend outing in Herbster. We would highly recommend staying here.

A beautiful cabin on Lake Superior! This cabin is so cozy and comfy, just like your favorite sweater. We enjoyed morning coffee on the porch and gorgeous sunsets on the bench overlooking the lake. I love swings and the swing overlooking the lake was perfect! The private, mowed path to the lake was one of the highlights for me a short walk surrounded by native grasses, flowers and raspberry bushes (a little snack- reward for each walk)! The beachfront was easily accessible, and we enjoyed our time at the water on the beach. The private fire pit was so fun for a night out under the starry sky. Oh, the stars!! Our hosts, Jack & Cherie were fabulous! Cherie responded right away with a phone call answer to a question we had. They also offered great suggestions for local attractions & restaurants. A wonderful Northwoods stay! Thank you, Jack & Cherie!

Beautiful cabin on the south shore of Lake Superior

Our accommodations in Port Wing were fantastic. Somebody put a lot of love, craftsmanship and detail into building and decorating this cabin. It’s close to Bayfield with great shopping and restaurants. The scenery is amazing with beautiful sunsets. Our hosts were very accommodating and the communication was very good. A great place to stay and the weather was wonderful. Highly recommend!

Perfect Quiet Getaway

My husband and I booked the cabin for a last minute getaway. It was perfect for the two of us. The host was super communicative and there were instructions for everything you could need in the cabin. The bench overlooking the lake was perfect for watching the sunset each night. The steps down to the sandy little beach were a little rugged and could prove difficult for some. The kitchen is small but they have just about everything you need in there. I would recommend bringing your own shampoo, conditioner, soaps.

A great lake Superior getaway

This little cabin was exactly what my wife and I were looking for in a honeymoon location. It was quiet and tucked away right up against the lake. The cabin was well furnished and had lovely north woods decor. We both enjoyed collecting agates along the beach, and watching the sunset from the bench on the shore. The owners are nice and even left us a nice wedding card along with some wildflowers. We made use of the fire pit and we're able to grill brats for dinner, and the kitchen was great for the cooking that we did. There were some mosquitoes at dusk as you'd expect, but we could still come inside and play cards while watching the sunset over the lake. Overall we both agreed it was an awesome experience. If you're looking for a great cabin getaway on lake Superior, look no further.

Getaway

I was in town visiting family for a few days and booked this place to have my own space, with my 6-year old. It was very peaceful, I loved the swings/and chairs by the lake. I was lucky that my husband did not join me on this trip - as the cabin saids it sleeps four, but definitely only sleeps two (in the upstairs loft). That being said, this would be the perfect honeymoon/couples cabin. Kitchen was stocked with the very basics. I'd recommend bringing some extra towels, as I booked the cabin for two - and only found two towels (for our two day stay). If we needed something extra with all the sand or perhaps any extra shower, it could of been interesting. Overall, I would stay again! While I didn't communicate with the host on anything, they had messaged me details for traveling and checking-in, which was helpful. Port Wing and the surrounding area is beauty, lots to explore, so recommend as well if you're looking for a new area.

The property is a perfect escape for two people. The cabin is cozy and has everything you will need for your getaway. It’s clean, comfortable, and quaint. The property has a wonderful view of the big lake including a nice beach area and a great firepit that overlooks the lake. They also provide the wood for the firepit. Jack and Cherie were perfects hosts and very nice to talk with. The area has lots of nature to explore and is 30 miles from Bayfield. We will definitely be going back and recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway!

The location of this cabin is superb with views that few rentals are able to offer. The hosts were friendly, immediately responsive to all questions and more than willing to help in every way possible.

Perfection! Beautiful, private lakefront cabin with all of the necessities. Enjoyed spectacular sunsets over Superior from the bluff bench, collected a few rocks from the beach & relaxed by the fire pit. Convenient access to area waterfalls & lake activities. Couldn’t ask for anything more. Already planning a return visit!

About the host

Hosted by Cherie

Host profile image
Cherie and Jack currently residing on Fort Myers Beach, FL
Cherie and I have been married for 40 years and have two daugthers Christie and Raegan. We have the men in our girls lives and also 6 grandchildren Jackson , Savanna, Alex, Charlie, Cooper and Benjamin.

Why they chose this property

10 years ago I had a appointment in Bayfield that fell through to the next day. I had never been on the South Shore and had a day to look around. Cherie and I would visit the North Shore two to three times a year. We have not been north of Duluth for over 10 years as we fell in love with the sunsets, sandy beaches, and warmer water. The South Shore has so many outdoor options without the crowds. So much to see and do from Port Wing , Herbster, Cornucopia, Bayfield and Ashland. We are located at the halfway point from Duluth to Bayfield offering the opportunity to visit both during your stay or simply just hunker down at the shore.

What makes this property unique

We have always wanted to build a log cabin so somehow we ended up building 2 of them. Starting in spring of 2024 we rent out two twin log cabins. The log cabins are authentic hand hued very cute little houses that folks are really enjoying. Both cabins have everything you need for a short stay. Both cabins have nice views of the South Shore from inside and out. Each cabin have a queen bed in the loft that is ideal for a party of two. We have added a loveseat pull out bed for one additional guest.
